Should be "what has your series 2 done to you today"....

In my case it has left an enormous deep scratch down my back. Damn split pin on the side step pin!

Refitted the rebuilt Tex-Magna indicator switch. Many thanks to Rory for donating me a replacement chrome lever. You are very generous and I owe you a beer.

Also the wiper motor and mechanism.

Just a gentle ride out to meet Bottom Box for a pub lunch, then back to Argos to collect our new bread maker.

Started to deal with a knock from the front swivel. Wear in the Railko. The bits arrived today, unfortunately, when I took it apart, I found the drive shaft U/J was U/S :agh There were bits of U/J bearing in the bottom of the swivel. Then I found the inner part of the drive shaft was showing signs of wear.

I didn't have a U/J in stock, so ordered that. I then thought, hum, I have a spare drive shaft, but it's 24 spline. Luckily, the inner part has the same part number - so I can rebuild the drive shaft by combining pieces.

Denso taped the springs. For information you will need 3 rolls of 50x10mm

I'm going to guess you did not mean 3 rolls of 10mm wide tape.
Perhaps 3 rolls 50mm wide, 10 metres long?
